This is the place to go for unfettered, fresh, cheap sushi. Sandobe's house rolls almost all incorporate avocado, are wrapped around a core of real crab meat (not imitation), and can be ordered in regular (full order) or special (half order) sizes. The Rich roll is a personal favorite--sweet pieces of eel wrapped around rice and crab.

Also recommended are the miso soup and the seaweed salad appetizer, which is doused in some kind of dressing that I still have not been able to identify.

You might have to wait a little while, and it may be a little noisy, but Sandobe is worth it. Great sushi (the maki rolls have fresh crabmeat), and so cheap by New York standards. And when you're done, you can head east to Veniero's (a fantastic pastry shop just a few doors down from Sandobe )for dessert.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I enjoy going out to sushi every once in awhile, but have a hard time with paying for such a small amount of food. Well, we have an answer. In a word, Sandobe. I am invariably shocked at how small the bill is when I go there. Beer and sake are available. Expect a wait at the door, but it moves quickly. I've never seen a place turnover customers so fast. Perhaps a bad choice for a date, but good for a group of say, 4-6 people. Anymore and you'll have a tough time getting a table. They have a long list of crab based rolls which are the house speciality.
